BoxRec lists Henry as a heavyweight and that's what I'll make him as but he appeared to fight up and down between Light Heavies and Heavyweights throughout his career.
Biggest name opponents were three fights(a loss and 2 draws) against Frank Hough(61-26-4,42) a hard puncher from Ipswich, England who also move up and down between Middleweight on up to Heavies in his career, Henry beat Vic Brooks a couple times, lost to Reg Andrews, Len Bennet, Gerry McDermott and Dolph Quijano.
Henry also fought and lost three times to a George Dawson(16-9-0,12), won one and lost one to Frank Ronan(17-8-1,11), lost to American LHWs Reuben Jones (40-19-2,8), Harold Sampson(16-9-4,10) and Frank Favaro(11-2-0,8) and German MW Dietrich Hucks(28-11-10,22).

Dom Lydon
6 wins / 6 losses / 0 draws / 6 KO
Rating by: Rocco Del Sesto (Altered Tomato Can from Cornerwork)
Won his first two fights in late 1937 by TKO then lost a 10 round decision to Tony Shucco in August 1938, a 10 round decision to Jim Wilde in October 1938 and a 7th round TKO to Al Robinson in July 1939.
In March 1940 he fought Ernie Simmons for the Irish Heavyweight Title. Lydon had to retire from the fight in the 10th round with an injured hand after having quite a good lead on points. AFter that Lydon fought only a couple times in 1941 winning both fights, including a 2nd round KO of Charlie Collett. He then retired from the ring until Decmeber 1944 at which over the next 6 months he won 2 fights and lost 2.
